Having laid a 36-0
whupping on Auburn (the largest Iron Bowl margin since 1962),
now the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide gets ready for the SEC
championship game against Florida, ranked No. 2 in the latest
Associated Press poll. Despite the Gators' previous loss to
Ole Miss, undefeated Alabama will almost certainly be the
underdog going into Saturday's showdown in Atlanta's Georgia
Dome. At least
one sports pundit thinks 'Bama can win:
Florida might be the fastest team in the history of college
football. . . .
Florida also has quarterback Tim Tebow, the reigning Heisman
Trophy winner, and one of the country's most improved defenses.
. . .
But the Gators won't beat Alabama in Saturday's SEC
championship game in Atlanta's Georgia Dome. . . .
Nothing will be more gratifying for Alabama than beating the
Gators on Saturday night. . . .
Alabama has the necessary ingredients -- a stifling, physical
defense and a punishing, ball-control offense -- to slow the
Gators down. . . .
[T]he Crimson Tide will win by doing what they've done all
along: playing great defense and controlling the clock with
their running game. . . .
And the Gators haven't seen a team as strong or menacing as the
Crimson Tide.
This is the cue for all Florida fans to start trashing 'Bama in
the comments.
